ALL EPISODES

All saltwater anglers know that nothing is more damaging that the corrosive effects of salt.

Zach McAllister of Salts Gone joins us today to help us understand why salt destroys boating products in the way that it does. There are many products that can kill Salt but sometimes it can be even more damaging than simply leaving the salt on. Zach explains how his product works and why his product is the best way to defend against it. If you want to try out Salts Gone yourself, head over to https://saltsgone.com/

This week we will honor the life and legacy of Capt. Joe Gonzalez who recently passed away by replaying the 2 podcasts that I was fortunate enough to do with him.

Today we will go over Joe’s preferred bonefish rig.

This episode was recorded in Joe’s home in Little Havana on December 19, 2019 where he and his family kindly invited me in.

The sportfishing industry, Biscayne Bay, the clients, friends and family of Joe Gonzalez lost a great one recently. Thank you for the influence you had over so many of us, Joe. You were one of a kind. Im thankful to have known you and I wish the very best for your family.

With the recent changes in the regulations on Goliath Grouper I thought we would discuss how to catch these small Goliaths.

Maybe you are one of the 200 individuals who will get a permit this year. If so, maybe this info will help. Check out this article for the updated regulations https://www.wtxl.com/media/v/content/11fc44ce1e55136ebc3521efa0e78a04

With technology constantly advancing, it is important to use it to our advantage when it comes to fishing. In this episode I go over my two favorite tools, Google Earth and Salt Strong. Google Earth can be incredibly helpful for not only finding where to fish, but also understanding why fish are in a certain area. You can then take that information to new spots and narrow down your search for fish. Salt Strong is another incredible tool for becoming a better and more well informed angler. With everything that they provide, you can learn specific techniques, get exclusive insight on fishing zones, and more.

My good friend Mike Larkin was asking me about a big decision he is making soon, and I thought it would make a great How 2 Tuesday. Mike is currently deciding between buying a bay boat or a skiff. In this episode, we go through all of the pros and cons of each, and discuss multiple situations where one would be of benefit over the other. We also go through different sizes of bay boat and weigh the pros and cons of that. Do you have a question for me like Mike did? Shoot me a text and ask me: 305-930-7346

This week on How 2 Tuesday we go over the splash-less cast. This can be an excellent technique for landing a shrimp or jig right in front of a fish’s face without spooking them. This does take a LOT of practice though. In this episode I go over the technique and movements that you should be making. I also go over what tackle is best for this situation. Just like a bass angler practices flipping jigs, this is something that you can practice in your pool or canal so make sure that you have this technique dialed in before you try it on a big permit or bonefish!

WARNING!! - Some attempts at the splash-less cast result in nuclear-like explosions if not done exactly right. Make sure to practice!

Every fly caster seems to want to cast the longest possible cast. Whether it is actually to catch a fish or to impress your friends at the barbecue, the desire to cast the whole line or deep into the backing is something that many people ask about. Now, I don’t think that you have to be able to cast far to land lots of fish, but if you practice your distance casting and can have control of your fly line, it will drastically help your line control at shorter distances.

Back in 1998, I won the Best of the West casting competition, casting a standard 5wt fly rod 131 feet. In this episode we go over some secrets and tricks that I use to cast this far. You may notice that much of distance casting isn’t all casting technique but also line preparation. Soon I hope to make a full video going through the casting motions, but if you have any questions right now, shoot me a text 305-930-7346
